Chatteris is a small market town in the Fenland district of Cambridgeshire, England, set within the low-lying marshes of the Fens. The town has medieval origins and a long-standing market tradition, with a prominent parish church tower that acts as a local landmark and archaeological evidence of early settlement in the area.
